However, they are boldly predicting that this train will tie up at Emeryville on Monday at 4:12 PM PDT, 37 minutes early.
I hope Bill isn't throwing peoples luggage off the train to make it lighter as it moves west, just to match or beat his statistical predictions.

You "WOW"'ed too soon:
The latest:
However they still project an arrival this afternoon/evening at 5:15 PM, which is just 26 minutes off the advertised. Remember that's 8:15 PM to those of us on the right coast.As of the last report at 8:13 am at Winnemucca, NV (WNN), it was running 2 hours late.

#6(20) was annulled at Omaha tonight, which means the passengers for #5(23) will be bustituted to Omaha where #5 will originate. Bill probably passed this ill-fated train halfway through his trip, most likely in the Rockies.TRAIN 6 ANNULLED AT OMA DUE TO TRACKWORK AT OSC
ALL PAX TO BUS AT OMA STATION
ETA 2HRS LATE AS OF 2200 CST 22 AUG

Mr. Korell,Bill is very lucky, regardless of the outcome of his trip. Had he planned his westbound journey 3 days later (leaving Chicago on Tuesday 8/23), he would have run into this:

It was released and ran to Chicago as required but late. So Tommrow's 5(23) will not be bussed.
